Kia of St. Cloud

When I made the service appointment I was guaranteed a loaner car. I live over 2 hrs away and the engine light was on. I get to drop off my car and there is no car available. Then I am told I only have a warranty on my powertrain not anything else. WOW this is new. I have had a ton of work done and it's always been covered under an imaginary warranty. Lucas was awful! And customer service was not his goal. When someone spends hard earned money purchasing a vehicle and they buy a Kia specifically for the warranty then get told, "Nope," that's not too good for business. I will tell the whole world to avoid this place. They also use scare tactics, as in if I don't get my oil changed there then that will void your warranty. Hmmm...

Walked in looking to get a trade in and bought a new 2017 with no pressure!!

I purchased a new car last fall, which I enjoy. I have had my oil changes there with a tire rotation, as I haven't needed any work yet. Well, today I did the same, declined the 15,000 mile maintenance check that they pushed. Shortly after I was waiting, out came a technician with a obviously dirty air cabin filter, which he said was mine. He wanted to change it for $39.99. I declined, as I am able to change it myself for a fraction of the cost they wanted. So, I picked up a new filter, and when I pulled out the old one, surprise! My filter was FINE! Not only was it barely dirty! It was white! The one he showed me was pale blue! Crooked business, taking advantage of a customer - probably because I am a woman!!!

I purchased a Buick Rendezvous from Kia of St. Cloud about a month ago now. I test drove several vehicles that day and it took several hours. After very high pressure, I felt compelled to purchase this vehicle. It took all of the money I had. On the way home from St. Cloud, I ran out of gas as the gas gauge didn't work. About 3 days later, I found out that it needed a new transmission. The rear defrost doesn't work, and the front struts are rubbing on the tires. There is a ton wrong with this vehicle and it is very obvious they didn't check this vehicle over or didn't disclose all the things wrong with it.

I purchased a new 2012 Kia Sedona for my son. The selling point was the extended warranty. Since then, there have been many service issues not covered by the warranty. Among these issues were replacement of the brake rotors, replacement of a defective ignition switch, replacement of two headlights, replacement of electrical wiring in the air conditioner that caused a fire in the engine compartment and lastly a considerable charge to replace an oil drain plug that required removing the oil pan and plug and installing a new plug. The oil changes have always been done by Kia and the service manager had no explanation why the old plug couldn't be removed. The car presents a nice appearance but reliability and maintenance are totally unreasonable. I would be very reluctant to ever buy another KIA.

I want to start off saying that we have been going through them for 5 years and this is our 4th car experience with them. All other times would have been 5 stars. We have been going to them since they were a tiny little shed of a building and, unfortunately, will never be going back there again, unless it is to serve them a lawsuit for the lies. They have grown too big to care about customers now. Don't even bother trying to get a hold of them, via phone, they won't return your calls.

Went in to trade in my Buick, looking for a Chevy or Buick around $5000-$6000 then I was told they had them. Wait for an hour. Told they could not find them on the lot. I could take the truck and the Forte out to drive, I did. Prices too high then it was pressure from them as they had different people coming in with new ways to finance the deal. I was there for 5 hours, ended up getting the Forte, but said that I wasn't sure. 2 sales people tell me to "take it home, drive it and if I did not like I could bring it back anytime because they want to keep their customers happy. I could then get something different." Sent email to the salesperson twice and have no response from him. Manager said I needed to get off his lot because it was my car even though I was told I could return it. I was told by this sales person that he could "sell the car Monday morning for $12,000." I even looked up the book value and it is $6,400. I paid $9,000. Who is not playing fair?

I have received multiple direct mailings that are absolutely false and amount to nothing short of FRAUD. With regards to rebuilding your credit after a bankruptcy you state, "You must make a new purchase after bankruptcy in order to re-establish credit" Going on to say that keeping your existing car loan will do nothing. There is a very simple and common process called Reaffirmation to have your existing loans begin reporting back to the credit agencies again. Cease and desist the LIES and FRAUD.

Great job Kris ** at Kia of st cloud, best service I ever had at a dealership. Kris was nice, up front, honest and to the point. Went in at 9 am traded in 2005 Kia Sedona, drove off at 11:30 am in a 2012 Kia Sorento. If you looking for a car go to Kia of St cloud and ask for Kris **, he gets the job done with a smile.

I had an awesome time test driving different used cars. Got the one I wanted that day. Well, that car was not what I needed. I brought it back and got the car I needed and wanted within my budget, all thanks to Alex! I really appreciated the customer service and the time Alex spent with me! Everyone there made me feel special!

Kris was very kind right from the start. I would recommend him to anyone I know. He made our experience here at Kia great! We ALL think he needs a reward for being able to deal so well with us. :-)

My first ever brand new car. Working with Derik Boxell was so easy, from making the appointment, valuing my trade and completing the transaction, everything went very smoothly. If you are looking for a new vehicle, I would recommend visiting Kia of St. Cloud.

My mom bought a new kia from Omar and we are so happy with it that I decided to come and see if I can get approved and he is doing his best to work with us. He is friendly and very professional. Great person to deal with.

Alex has a very happy personality and pleasant. He appears to know his product.

Todd was very friendly and knowledgeable in regards to the Sorento and accessories. He was able to answer our questions without hesitation. My father recommended him to me and I would recommend him as well to others. The remainder of the team was helpful and available as needed. We were greeted within seconds of walking in the front doors with a smiling face. Restrooms were clean as well. We were offered pizza as well being here over the lunch hour. Couldn't have asked a better car buying experience.

He worked very hard for me to get what I wanted.

Friendly staff with good knowledge of the vehicles.

Omar is a very kind and helpful salesman. He had the knowledge and experience to get us into a vehicle hassle-free. We will be back and will specifically be back to work with Omar.

Ryan went beyond the call of duty to help us find a car for our daughter. We are extremely pleased with how hard he worked to help us. He approached us while we were driving the lot. Introduced himself and immediately focused on a used car solution to our specific needs. Listened to us without interrupting. Qualified our needs, then utilized his manager to identify a recent trade that fit us more than enough.

Lucas runs a very good service dept. Rarely makes a mistake. We all do on occasion. Kia of Saint Cloud has one of the best service centers in Saint Cloud. I highly recommend their service. Prices Are Very Good and the service people are friendly and willing to help you out.

KIA OF SAINT CLOUD Allows their employees to be rude to their customers in their Service department. Don't ever give LUCAS a bad review. He will yell at you and tell you never to come back for service. What good are these surveys if you can't be honest on them? I have only given one bad review in 5 yrs. of buying cars from them. All the people I have dealt with there were always given a 10 on all my surveys.

We had the best experience here and I would highly recommend people here because the service was just great and the Sales Consultant that we had was very polite and very kind and he did everything that he could to get us into a vehicle today. I appreciate all the effort that he put in to helping us.

We have been needing a new car for awhile now due to our family growing and our budget was specific, and we had certain things we needed and wanted in a car. Alex was able to go above and beyond for our needs and wants. I couldn't be happier with the service we received! Thanks again. :)

Same as all the other negative reports, pushy salesmen and high prices. I bought a car for $4000 less at another dealer who was not pushy at all. Stay away.

I have had a wonderful sales experience with Ryan **. He has answered all my questions thoroughly. I have been to a lot of dealerships and this experience is the best by far. I would recommend working with St. Cloud Kia dealership and Ryan **.

I am new to Kia. I actually haven't ever even driven through the lot before. Instantly Chad greeted me with a friendly smile! I could tell he was "down to earth" and didn't seem pushy or intimidating, which was refreshing!! He was very knowledgeable in every aspect of purchasing our new vehicle. I would highly recommend him!! Thanks Chad! We are going to love our new 2014 Sorento! :)

Brought my truck in today to possibly trade it in on something newer and with a smaller payment. Found a great new vehicle with better gas mileage and a lower payment. The salesman was very helpful and easy to work with. Had a great experience.

Chad Lahr was awesome. He was able to answer all of our questions without hemming and hawing.

After a lot of research we decided on purchasing the Kia Soul. I did the pre approval credit application on the Kia website and it made the buying experience way better and a lot quicker. Dan was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful in assisting us with our first Kia purchase. I would highly recommend Kia of St. Cloud for your purchase.

Derik helped my family get into a bigger vehicle than what we had and did it with ease. He knew what payments we could afford and what is needed in a vehicle and got it for us. He is very polite and willing to listen and is not pushy at all. I would recommend going to speak to Derik if you are in a bind and he could most likely help you out!!!!
